Polar Aerosol Profiles
• Aerosol profiles show clear seasonal variations and generally have largest backscatter in summer at McMurdo and in spring and early summer at Utqiaġvik
McMurdo Utqiagvik

Polar Aerosol Profiles
• Frequent dust events in early spring at Utqiaġvik

Surface CCN and Cloud Droplet Concentration (Nliq) of Stratiform Mixed-phase Clouds
Lidar-based retrieved Nliq compare well with in situ measurements during ACE-ENA campaign (poster # 57, Wed 5:00-6:30 pm )

Surface CCN and Retrieved Nliq Annual Variations
• Nliq and CCN have similar annual trends except during the summer season
• Surface CCN at Utqiagvik is about 2 times of that at McMurdo
• Nliq is higher at McMurdo

Summary
• Aerosol profiles show clear seasonal variations at both Utqiagvik and McMurdo
• Frequent dust events in early spring at Utqiaġvik
• Surface CCN at Utqiagvik is about 2 times of that at McMurdo, but retrieved Nliq in stratiform mixed-phase cloud is lower at Utqiagvik than at McMurdo
